alexthegreat Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Smith, Lovenkrands, Harper, Kadar all have their contracts up at the end of this season. .COM says Harper has another year after this summer but I'm sure that this season is actually his last. Can't see Xisco or Ranger ever playing for us again. Perch should go to the championship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Harper Smith Perch Raylor Kadar Shola Lovenkrands Ranger Obertan Xisco You are aware that we need to have something resembling a squad, aren't you? The players highlighted above, whilst not necessarily being world-beaters, are of a decent enough standard (aside from Shola, but he is odds on to finish his career here) to compete in the Premiership so why get rid? I would persume that their salaries are fairly low, so rather have them as back-up (we would have been lost at the weekend without Raylor in midfield) than get caught short and have to rely on Academy players. You are aware we can sign new players, aren't you? TT, that's fantasy football stuff man You can't get rid of ten-odd players and bring in ten new ones, man!!

Tiresias Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I'd keep Kadar unless we genuinely have no intention of moving him into the first team and despite his awful performances at times think we kind of need Raylor as a utility player, gives us a last ditch option all over the pitch, watch him end up in goal one day Otherwise happy to let them all go. I'd prefer Lovenkrands to Shola in the pecking order perhaps but we're never getting rid of Shola Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Krul, Forster, Elliot (Harper) Santon, Simpson, Saylor, Raylor, Coloccini, Perch, Williamson (Kadar) Cabaye, Tiote, Marveaux, Ben Arfa, Jonas, Guthrie, Gosling, Abeid, Vuckic, Obertan, Ferguson (Smith) Cisse, Ba, Best, Shola, Sammy (Lovenkrands, Xisco, Ranger) Get rid of the players in brackets and we still have a large squad. The size isn't the problem, it's the quality. The task this summer is to upgrade the likes of Obertan, Gosling, Simpson and Perch. I haven't been this excited about our squad in a long time, we just have to pray that Ashley shows some ambition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Can see Harper wanting out in the summer really. He would want to finish his career on a high, not on the bench (understandable really). Still rate the man like, decent enough backup for Krul (I'm still unsure about Elliot). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rob 1988 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 This month only Smith & Xisco can f*** off. In the summer Harper Ranger Lovenkrands Smith and Xisco off the wage bill Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 The only players in the current squad who i would say are dispensable are Smith, Ranger and Lovenkrands. Xisco has never been a Newcastle 'player' so it's pointless even counting him. If, come August, we're in a position to move on the likes of Perch, Gosling, Obertan and Harper it would be great - but that would mean quite an influx of players, which is unlikely. The three mentioned by most people are the only ones i'd want to rush out pretty soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistle17 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Shift Simpson. Even just having Raylor and/or Tavernier as back up would be OK to whoever we (should) buy in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few depth signings a fullback and get rid of all the deadwood to free up the wage bill and we could have a really good squad for next season tbh.
